Practice, Debs40ish! After being fooled by P4/12s and T5/20s in several babblegrids, one learns to watch out for them ;)

2:29 am

smithchick

Alright, I'm going to have to break down and ask for e clues. I just have one, e4/7. For some reason, I'm e challenged.-

2:30 am

redletter

One of the o's is the past tense of an exclamation

2:33 am

smithchick

Bye, debs... Enjoy the sun!

2:59 am

smithchick

PLease, could someone spare an e clue?

3:03 am

3:17 am

In that case you need E4/5, a word that has been in grids before, but I do not know a def. It is part of the name of a duck that is famous for its down.

3:26 am

TinaK

hello, I don't suppose anyone can give me the last 3 words from yesterdays puzzle. I was missing le 5/16, re 6/36 and the elementary high school clue for the e. Is this allowed, it is really bugging me as I haven't completed a puzzle yet, only on my fourth tho', still hope for me.

3:27 am

Hugabugs

I'm missing my last 6 word. I have c6, d6, h6, p6, w6x2

Can anyone help me along?

3:28 am

sprite

Tinak, if you click yesterday's puzzle and then click one of the topnames, you will find a complete list of yesterday's words. When I started, I did that often and learned a lot of new words that way ;)

3:29 am

broll

TinaK - Click on Archives at the top of the screen, then click on a players name and you will get all the words

3:29 am

sprite

S6

3:32 am

broll

s6 I have w6/30. Any clue on the other?

Hugabugs

Thanks Sprite

One W6 is a superlative, the other is a past tense.

Now for the pesky missing c that I have and my final s.....

lianakate, I know what you're going through, done it for almost 2 years since I've quit, after smoking for over 50 years, and still want one every minute of the day. Hang in there and good luck. We're addictive personalities, so I guess that's why we're babbling.........

10:19 am

Anj

Me! Me!

10:20 am

lola100

Moozey, de7/44 is a superlative of one of your de4/8's :)

10:26 am

Anj

Same here lola100.
Moozey, that de5/12 is someone who believes God created the universe and then basically scarpered leaving it to us to get on with it.

Anj

We will try and leave some good ones munner. Take it easy.

10:28 am

lola100

1:21 pm

Moozey

silky - ts?? A sucking noise made by suddenly releasing the tongue from the hard palate, used to express disappointment or sympathy (past tense)

1:21 pm

lola100

Silkysings- it's the past tense of a noise you'd make when annoyed :)

1:22 pm

Right, that's the blackberry jam made. Kingswood, eh, Anj. Not quite my old stamping ground in student days. More Clifton based. But five of us set a world record for marathon tenpin bowling in Kingswood Bowl - 52 hours - a record that stood for all of six weeks. Happy days.

1:24 pm

Moozey

thanks Andy. Well done mu, catch you tomorrow

1:25 pm

Anj

No worries Lola. I'll be honest, I don't think I would ever finish if it were not for all the hints & tips that everyone shares.

1:27 pm

No way! Also think I'd be bored by now if it wasn't for all the friendly banter :)

ferrari- te4/10: A love grass (Eragrostis tef) native to northeastern Africa and southwestern Arabia, used as a cereal crop and livestock forage. Try using the scoring system to get it :)

1:31 pm

Anj

Muscat - 52 hours? What did they feed you? I might be in Kingswood but I do most of my socialising in Clifton, Hotwells or over in Bath

1:34 pm

I agree lola without the banter it would be hellish trying to work out these dasterdly puzzles on our own and eveyone seems really lovely and sharing. End of crawling post LOL

1:39 pm

muscat

Mostly cola and freebie ciggies from Wills, Anj. I don't remember eating at all. It was a charity thingy and the sadistic manager offered us an extra five shillings for every strike after 50 hours. His money was safe. By that time we were all bowling two-handed. Loved Clifton. Did you know that in the days when phones had letters on, if you dialled the word OBSCENITY you got the Suspension Bridge tollbooth?

1:39 pm

silkysings

I have to4's worth 4, 5, and 10 points..is there another?

1:40 pm

Anj

Gwen, you're after a no4/4 meaning 'votes against (as opposed to for)'

1:40 pm

Janie

Definitely joining in with the group hug!
Have just finished, having torn my hair out all day!
First one I've ever finished!
Hurrah..large drinks all round xx

Muscat, u must have been wired by then %)
What scares me about that phone number, is that someone took the trouble to work that out. I'm trying hard not to imagine the other words they tried lol

1:43 pm

Gwen

silky, need one more to4/4 (ends in vowel)

1:44 pm

silkysings

Linda1, I would like to say it was down to a heady mix of intellect & skill but I would be lying. It's more like luck, typos, tantrums and www.a2zwordfinder.com
And not forgetting everyone else who help out with their posts, good humour, and occasional raspberry pavlova :)

2:35 pm

lola100

fe5/16: a mongrel dog!

2:36 pm

lola100

movieman, I suppose it could be another term for earphones?

2:36 pm

hokie carla

silky: it's supposedly Southern US, but I've never heard it before. (the fe word you're looking for). You usually see it as a 6 letter word ending in y. Took me forever to find it!

2:37 pm

Gwen

zade, other 'o' is past tense of exclamation. Simular to aa5/18

2:37 pm

lola100

zade oh4/7- like an american state but the last letter is different

2:37 pm

movieman

hi lola100!
many thanx, it's really annoying when i don't get the obvious ones!!!

2:39 pm

hokie carla

eureka! I was missing the de5/12 & found it.

Thanks!

2:40 pm

silkysings

thanks guys I finall got the fe, now all I have left is de5/12 which I've seen below as someone who believes god created the earth and then left us scarpered, which i am guesing is the same as SOL form the sound of the word

2:40 pm

lola100

No problem movieman! Where've you been all day?

2:40 pm

Zade

Thank you lola100, have completed, love you even more now! xxx
'til tomorrow, from good old Sussex by-the-sea, 'bye.

2:41 pm

Gwen

fe5/16 tuck your fingers into your palm with thumb wrapped around them. Add an e before i (same as mongrel dog)

2:41 pm

Zade

Thanks gwen as well, fancy a threesome? LOL

2:42 pm

lola100

Well done zade! Cheers for now:)

2:43 pm

2:45 pm

Zade

Hey movieman, you can't argue with the quality of the Crespo strike.
You don't think the Aussies will get the runs then? LOL

2:46 pm

silkysings

thanks you guys give the awesomest clues. i never would have finished without knowing what i was msising and what two letters they all started with. And using reverse dictionary helps answer the clues

Re Zade
I am a massive Blues supporter, have been 4 about 20 years now, but i was expecting them to score at least 4 or 5!!

2:49 pm

Moozey

Movieman - I don't support Chelsea or Wigan but that was cruel so cruel at the end.

2:49 pm

Zade

llama, you really must cease! discontinue! halt!

4:56 pm

Anj

Llama, it's the same as the plural greek walkway but with a different vowel ending

4:56 pm

llama

redletter - isn't that an st4?

4:56 pm

swmbo

llama, it may be the plural of the Greek walkway ending with an 'i' instead of an 'e'

4:58 pm

redletter

oops, llama. so sorry

4:58 pm

llama

thanks swmbo and Anj! I've got them all now. time to st4/6 this madness for today...;)

there's the greek walkway, plus the greek walkwayS ending in one vowel, then a second greek walkwayS ending in a different vowel. Or that's what they look like. Anytway, the two sto5's are 'greek walkway' plus one vowel.

5:02 pm

Anj

swmbo, your Ks are:
ke4 /8 - acetone/carbonyl group (or Peter Seller's sidekick in the Pink Panther films with an E instead of an A)
